Even as a fan, I support this development. Part of what’s great about this video is how it at once expresses sincere regret over losing the song—it is an undeniably evocative and well-orchestrated piece of music, after all—and at the same time articulates the importance of moving onto other songs before you ruin your favorites forever. In that spirit, I pledge to make this the last Gotye parody we ever post. After more than 287 million views, it’s time to think about seeing other videos.
